BACKGROUND ART

Depression is a disease which shows a typical condition of suppressed mood among mood disorders, and one of its causes is considered to be functional disorders in the central serotonergic and noradrenergic nervous systems. Serotonin and noradrenaline are decomposed and metabolized by monoamine oxidases (mainly by type A-monoamine oxidase) to lose their biological activities. Type A-monoamine oxidase inhibitors are considered to be useful as antidepressants and such inhibitors have been studied and developed intensively. Recently, Moclobernide has been supplied clinically as a selective type A-monoamine oxidase inhibitor.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

Method A is a method for synthesizing the compound of general formula (I).

In step A1 a compound of formula (III) is prepared by reacting a compound (II) with a halogenating agent in an inert solvent or in the absence of a solvent (preferably in an inert solvent) in the presence or absence of a base (preferably in the presence of a base).

The solvent to be employed here is not particularly limited so long as it does not interfere with the reaction and can dissolve a certain amount of the starting material. Examples of suitable solvents may be aliphatic hydrocarbons such as hexane, heptane, ligroin or petroleum ether; aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene or xylene; halogenated hydrocarbons such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene; or ethers such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, preferably halogenated hydrocarbons (particularly methylene chloride) or ethers (particularly tetrahydrofuran or dioxane).

The base to be employed here may be, for example, alkali metal carbonates such as sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate or lithium carbonate; alkali metal hydrogencarbonates such as sodium hydrogencarbonate, potassium hydrogencarbonate or lithium hydrogencarbonate; or organic amines such as triethylamine, tributylamine, diisopropylethylamine, N-methylmorpholine, pyridine, 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine, N,N-dimethylaniline, N,N-diethylaniline, 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN), 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) or 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU), preferably alkali metal carbonates or organic amines, more preferably organic amines (particularly triethylamine or pyridine).

The halogenating agent to be employed here may be, for example, phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus oxybromide, phosphorus oxyiodide or phosphorus pentachloride, or a mixture thereof, preferably phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus pentachloride or a mixture thereof.

The reaction temperature may be varied depending on the nature of the starting material and reagent, and is usually from 0° C. to 150° C., preferably from 10° C. to 100° C.

The reaction time may be varied depending on the nature of the starting material, reagent and reaction temperature and is usually from 30 minutes to 10 hours, preferably from 1 to 5 hours.

After the completion of the reaction, the target compound of this step is isolated from the reaction mixture according to a conventional method.

Type A-monoamine oxidase inhibitory activity was determined according to the method described in Biochem. Pharmacol., 12, 1439 (1963) and J. Neurochem., 35, 109 (1980). To 30 μl of a sample of mouse brain crude mitochondria (30 μg protein) were added 210 μl of a phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and a test compound (dissolved in a mixture of 10% DMSO and water), and the resulting mixture was preincubated at 38° C. for 20 minutes. Subsequently, ¹⁴ C-5-hydroxytriptamine (5-HT, final concentration: 100 μM) was added to the preincubated mixture to effect reaction at 38° C. for 20 minutes. After the reaction had been quenched by adding 2N-hydrochloric acid (200 μl), a ¹⁴ C-labelled metabolite obtained by the enzymatic reaction was extracted with a solvent (ethyl acetate: toluene=1: 1), and the ¹⁴ C radioactivity was determined using a liquid scintillation counter to obtain the concentration of the compound which decreases the ¹⁴ C radioactivity of the control by 50%.
